When I wasn't looking
Chemo stole my hair.
I was just sitting in the
Infusion chair
In a Benadryled dream state
And I must have nodded off.
I could have sworn I had my
Full long brown locks
Very late
Last night.
I so very much loved
My hair.
I always have since I combed mine
And my dolls as a little girl.
This thief called Adriamycin and his gang
Made off with it.
I have paid the price already with the
Probing and cutting and radiating.
I relented to that and even the damn
Estrogen blocker stuff
That will just make me feel like a menopausal
Woman well before my time.
Damn it, just give me back my straight, pretty
Long brown hair.
